How Washer Overflow Cleanup Works in Hobe Sound

Do not seal a wet floor under new flooring or paint. Trapped moisture causes trouble later. Wait for the final readings.

1. Pump out the standing water

   Carpet gets repeated passes with a weighted wand, because wash water clings to the backing. Hard floors get squeegeed toward the pump intake or the drain.

2. Map the moisture

   A ceiling below the laundry area gets its own readings. Wet insulation and drywall there often decide whether the dry-out is a one-floor or a two-floor job.

3. Clean and pull what cannot dry

   Carpet pad that soaked up gray water usually comes out. The carpet itself may be cleaned and dried in place if the loss is caught early.

4. Dry and verify

   Floor drying mats can pull water up from hardwood or from a wet subfloor. The crew uses them where air movers alone are too slow.
